Wylam Brewery Secures Sunday Opening

Issue 17

A leisure venue which occupies one of Newcastle’s most iconic buildings is extending its hours to include Sundays only four months after opening.

Wylam Brewery opened in the Palace of Arts, in Exhibition Park, in May, following extensive £2m restoration works. The venue, which is the new home for Wylam Brewery following its relocation from Heddon-on-the-Wall in Northumberland, houses a brewery, a 30-barrel brew house, tap room with food offering and events space.

In the short time it has been open, the new Wylam Brewery has become one of the most talked-about leisure locations in the North East. Initially opening on Thursday and Friday evenings and Saturday from midday to 11pm, as well as for private hires throughout the week, the venue has now been granted a license for Sunday opening from midday to 11pm and has added Sunday lunches to its offering.
